Free DVDs wanted

Cheap ones (like $4 for shipping or the like) accepted too.

In digging around the house this morning, I rediscovered my copy of "The Kerry Kit", a dvd that I vaguely remember requesting from moveon.org. In digging around the web a little more, I found that the rnc was offering their own version, so I ponied up a sufficiently fake name and asked for a copy of that too. Googling "free dvds" gets links upon links of people offering free current movies for buying things from other sites or crap like that, but what I'm looking for are original dvds on... pretty much anything. Political organizations? Car companies? Universities? Soloflex machines? Let me know! If they're offering free dvds, I'm curious.

I also found bmwfilms.com, and they're apparently offering a dvd of their promo pieces for shipping costs ($4.01 I think), so that falls in the category as well. Hey [livejournal.com profile] marasca, know any of your clients who have such things to send out?

Are you trying to make your floors collapse from DVD overloading?

No, just my wall shelving units.

You bought more?

I can't think of any offhand, but I'll see if I can come up with anything.

Other than collapsing your shelving units, what do you want these for? Some new work project? Just a new collecting craze?

I don't have any DVDs, but I do have a kick-ass web-enhanced multimedia CD on my shelf at home.

And I finally decided to just throw away all those damned floppy disks I've been carting around for 10 years.

Any particular reason you want the free cds/dvds that are basically just commercials?

The BMW DVD has a couple of really cool clips on it - The Star, iirc is the best of the bunch.
